Installing outdoor wireless security systems

Installing a security camera used to involve carpentry, wiring and a knowledge of closed circuit television systems. Today, a wireless security camera or alarm can be mounted almost anywhere with nothing but a few screws and batteries and the included mounting hardware.

Wireless Security Alarm Installations

As technology becomes more compact and more affordable, many homeowners, and even renters, are choosing to spend some money - often less than $100 - to install their own wireless security systems in their places of residence. Because no wiring is required for power or the transmission of images, these systems are easy to get mounted and running.

A wireless security camera can be installed in any convenient location and many of them are very small; almost unnoticeable, in fact. As infrared video technology has become cheaper and cheaper, installing an outdoor wireless security camera that provides surveillance, day or night, has come within the reach of most anybody. Most of these devices are battery operated, just as are their indoor cousins, meaning that power outages will not take down the system.

Whether it's indoor or outdoor, a wireless security camera can usually be interfaced with a VCR or a personal computer, allowing you to record any goings on that may merit playback for law enforcement. Remember to install your camera in an area where it is hard to see but has a good overall view of the area it monitors.

A wireless security alarm system is also a popular addition to many homes where laying new wire is out of the question. Working on the same principles as a wired alarm system, these devices simply use radio instead of wires to transmit an alarm condition to whatever device - siren, flashing light, etc. - they use to warn the homeowner and nearby persons that security has been breached.

Because there are no wires involved (like spy pens), a wireless security alarm system can even be easily installed on outer entryways, as well as garden gates, outbuildings, garages and tool sheds while the actual alarm remains in the house. Consider these devices for doors (Pinhole Cams and Door Spy Cameras) and ground-floor windows.

Because it's become so easy and inexpensive and because it can be done with no permanent structural alterations - or damage - to a dwelling, consider installing wireless security systems that combine cameras and alarms for maximum security. An outdoor wireless security camera not only allows you to keep an eye on the garage at night, it can also help you keep an eye on children while they're outside playing or pets when they're out using the yard. An alarm mounted to the doors and windows greatly increases the chances that neighbors will come to take a look if someone's trying to get into your house or apartment.

And, if a burglar does manage to get in, it certainly doesn't hurt to have a visual record of the event. Best of all, there are no wires to cut meaning that disarming your security system is not something likely to be accomplished by the common thief!

Please notice, that in various countries the installation and operation of surveillance cameras, hidden spy cams and wireless security systems can be subjected to different laws. For example in Germany, it is forbidden to operate hidden wireless cameras and hidden wireless microphones by telecommunication law since 2004. Please ask your local dealer of alarm and surveillance systems about the legal position in your area, before you install any security products and don't operate surveillance technology that will make you liable to prosecution.
